What I don't get it, while we may have been worse than Wakey (ha!) that we didn't even get a C license.

Has the way that's done changed etc now as well?

I thought you only need 4 points to get a grade C license all of which, for us, would be covered by the stadium (and what comes with a good stadium) alone.

I'm afraid that's me done. Moving to uni in September and on top of everything else, I just don't want to be a part of this sport anymore. If they kick that big eared naive prat and co out, i'll gladly reconsider.

But at the end of the season i'm done. I wish the club all the best and thank them for all their efforts, its a great club and they deserve so much more.

Re: WTF! : Tue Jul 26, 2011 11:13 am  
It's all in the wording. All they said is we weren't awarded a 'C' License, not that we didn't get a 'C' grade.

The RFL covered their backs the other day by saying details of each bid would not be made public after the announcement. So Halifax could have got a 'B' grade for all we know. What we didn't get was a Super League License, not that we didn't get a 'C' grade. We must have got a 'C' at least because the RFL said we met the super league criteria back in March.

Perhaps they are on their final final final "don't do it again or you'll get a spanked bottom" warning now :WALL:

That makes no sense.... so it's probably correct :wink:

Halifax really need to rock the boat and smack some people with the paddles here with this decision. I'd say with the amount of fans the Club will lose on the back of this they've got nothing to lose. Get the media on side for a start starting with the folk at SSN. Every time something to do with Rugby League is on they look at each other with a 'Is this game serious!?' look. Yer man doing it this morning is clearly using all his strength to not just go 'WTF!?' at the screen.

I can understand why people are angry - I am too. But is saying we're done with RL the answer. That'll only hurt the club when they need our support more than ever! Then when we don't have the crowds the RFL can throw that back at us!
